Southland v North Harbour

[Tim]

@Steven-Harris They look completely incompetent with ball in hand.

[taniwharugby]

@Tim looked good in opening 10, but very disjointed otherwise.

[taniwharugby]

why not take the 3??

[Steven Harris]

@Tim to be fair, they have come a hell of a long way from where they were..they miss Marty McKenzie at first five ,Nuu and Morby look good players ..I would take them at a drop of hat given what we have up in Northland at the minute

[taniwharugby]

@Steven-Harris Hawkins

[Kiwiwomble]

That’s a messy half, basically one or two phases before a penalty for 40 minutes

[taniwharugby]

Odd half, Southland look good in patches, but very lacking otherwise, NH will be disappointed not to be further ahead.

[antipodean]

This has not been the high quality rugby I was lead to believe it would be.

[taniwharugby]

surely an accidental off side there?

[taniwharugby]

seen penalties or cards for tackles like that

[Kiwiwomble]

Crowley has been poor, so many passes going to ground

[Tim]

Pierce good for Harbour. Not a lot of clear release today.

[Tim]

Any penalty in the 22 is a yellow card?

[taniwharugby]

@Tim seems the case...not sure NH have had any at the other end?

[taniwharugby]

8-9 on the cards

[taniwharugby]

knock on?

[Tim]

@taniwharugby Looked like one.

[taniwharugby]

5-7 with 22 to go

[Tim]

James Little is pants.

[taniwharugby]

and a miss by Southland...stays 5-7
